Abstract

Food processing uses thermal processes to maintain product preservation by killing spoilage microbes and pathogens, improving sensory quality, heating products, increasing the digestibility of proteins and carbohydrates, and destroying unnecessary ingredients. Thermal process techniques are preservation techniques that use high temperature and pressure to kill bacteria and pathogens in hermetically packaged foods by applying high heat over 100 degrees Celsius for a certain period of time. To maintain the safety of food products, thermal processing is one of the food processing processes that inactivate microbes in food. Excessive thermal processing can damage nutritional components and reduce the sensory quality of the product. in addition to killing microbes, thermal processing must consider the quality of the final product by minimizing quality damage.

Abstract

Pencemaran mikroplastik di perairan Indonesia menjadi isu lingkungan yang perlu mendapat perhatian, terutama dampaknya terhadap ekosistem laut dan organisme yang hidup di dalamnya terutama moluska. Moluska sebagai bioindikator pencemaran perairan menjadi objek kajian dalam penelitian ini untuk mengevaluasi tingkat paparan mikroplastik. Metode penelitian meliputi kajian literatur dan analisis sampel dari berbagai lokasi perairan di Indonesia berdasarkan perbedaan salinitas. Hasil studi menunjukkan bahwa berbagai spesies moluska telah terkontaminasi oleh mikroplastik dengan variasi jumlah dan jenis polimer yang berbeda-beda. Faktor utama yang berkontribusi terhadap tingginya akumulasi mikroplastik adalah aktivitas manusia, seperti pembuangan limbah plastik dan proses degradasi plastik di lingkungan perairan. Studi ini menegaskan bahwa mikroplastik dapat masuk ke dalam rantai makanan dan berpotensi menimbulkan dampak negatif terhadap kesehatan manusia. Oleh karena itu, diperlukan strategi pengelolaan limbah plastik yang lebih efektif untuk mengurangi pencemaran mikroplastik di perairan Indonesia.

Abstract

Cauliflower (Brassica oleracea) is one of the most widely cultivated and profitable horticultural plants. During the growth of cauliflower plants, various pest attacks can disrupt the harvest. This study examines the growth response of cauliflower plants to the use of botanical pesticides (Azadiractica indica) for pest control. In this study, a Randomized Block Design (RBD) was used, which had five treatments and five replications, namely: P0 as the control (without applying neem leaf solution), P1 provides a neem leaf solution of 300 ml/1000 ml of water (30%), P2 provides a neem leaf solution of 500 ml/1000 ml of water (50%), P3 provides a neem leaf solution of 700 ml/1000 ml of water (70%), and P4 provides a neem leaf solution of 900 ml/1000 ml of water (90%). The highest damage from the Plutella xylostella caterpillar attack was observed in the P0 (Control) treatment, because in this treatment, no spraying of neem leaf pesticide solution was conducted, causing the Plutella xylostella caterpillar to continuously attack the cauliflower plants, resulting in severe damage to the leaves and stems of the cauliflower plants.The cauliflower plants that were not treated experienced damage to their leaves, with the leaves being completely eaten and a large number of pests continuously attacking the untreated cauliflower plants.

Abstract

One solution to the plastic waste problem is to produce environmentally friendly plastic made from melinjo starch (Gnetum gnemon). The objective of this research is to determine whether bioplastic made from melinjo seeds (Gnetum gnemon) can be used as a starch-based material for producing eco-friendly plastic and to assess the impact of adding chitosan and glycerol to bioplastic derived from melinjo seeds (Gnetum gnemon). The research method employed is a qualitative and quantitative descriptive analysis of the resulting bioplastic, which consists of seven stages: starch production, bioplastic production, solubility test, swelling test, water resistance test, moisture content test, and biodegradability test. The results show that the composition with 4 grams of melinjo seed starch without the addition of chitosan and glycerol has low solubility (0%) and swelling (2.63%), high water resistance (97.37%), low moisture content (1.97%), and optimal biodegradation rate (97%). The addition of chitosan and glycerol affects the properties of bioplastic derived from melinjo seeds. This addition can increase solubility (2%), reduce the swelling percentage (1.47%), increase moisture content (3.11%), enhance water resistance (98.53%), and reduce the biodegradability percentage of bioplastic (97%).

Abstract

Tomatoes (Solanum lycopersicum L.) are a valuable source of phytochemicals, particularly lycopene, β-carotene, flavonoids, and phenolic acids. These compounds are known for their properties that combat oxidation, reduce inflammation, and prevent diseases. This review synthesizes current methods for extracting and purifying bioactive compounds from tomatoes, while also looking at their applications in the food, nutraceutical, and cosmetic industries. Although traditional solvent-based extraction is still the most common due to its high efficiency, greener methods like supercritical CO₂ extraction and enzyme-assisted extraction are becoming more important for sustainable practices. Chromatographic purification offers better selectivity compared to techniques like filtration or centrifugation, but cost and scalability remain barriers to wider use. The applications of lycopene and other tomato phytochemicals range from dietary supplements and functional foods to anti-aging products. Overall, this synthesis highlights the need to advance green extraction methods, along with effective purification strategies, to fully utilize tomatoes as a rich source of bioactive compounds across various industries
